Children of Zion, Know Your King

Children of Zi­on

know your King

Your own Mes­si­ah hail:

Hosanna in His tem­ple sing

For He hath rent the veil.

Himself the sac­ri­fice for sin

As your High-Priest He died;

With His own blood

He en­tered in—

Behold Him cru­ci­fied!

Behold Him on the mer­cy seat

High in the ho­li­est place;

Now cast your­selves be­fore His feet

Then rise to see His face.

That face with re­con­cil­ing beams

Shines forth up­on you all;

No long­er mourn by Ba­bel’s streams

He calls you—hear His call.

So shall your hearts with­in you burn;

While guid­ed by His voice

With songs to Zi­on you re­turn

And in your God re­joice

At His great name

bow ev­ery knee;

Let ev­ery tongue con­fess

Christ

whom your fa­thers slew

is He

The Lord your Right­eous­ness.
